Homecoming Week activities for CSD Blue Devils begin this Wednesday, Feb.11th and we’re bringing the spirit! 🎉 Here’s a sneak peek of our Homecoming Week lineup! Flyers will go home with students on Monday, so be on the lookout! Let the countdown begin!
Bladen County Schools will operate on a 2 hour delay tomorrow, Thursday, February 5. While, road conditions have significantly improved, the National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory for our area due to the possibility of freezing rain overnight. Therefore, out of an abundance of caution all Bladen County Schools and departments will operate on a 2 hour delay tomorrow.
If overnight or early morning conditions require a change to the delay, a decision will be made by 7 am.
We appreciate your cooperation as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff. We encourage everyone to closely monitor all communication channels for additional updates and look forward to seeing you tomorrow morning.
Bladen County Schools will continue with asynchronous remote learning tomorrow, Wednesday, February 4. District administrators have been in communication with the North Carolina Department of Transportation and Bladen County Emergency Services and there continues to be widespread concern with ice on secondary roads.
All events and activities scheduled for Wednesday, February 4 are canceled.
Asynchronous learning means that students will work independently on assignments that teachers have either posted in Canvas, Google Classroom, or sent home with students Friday. Staff will receive information regarding work schedules from their supervisors.
A decision regarding school operations for Thursday, February 5 will be made no later than 6 pm Wednesday.
We appreciate your cooperation as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff, and we encourage everyone to closely monitor all communication channels for additional updates.
Thank you and please stay warm!
